Joba 28

1 Cak ham a khorhui om tih sui ham khaw a ciil nah hmuen om.

“Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ai ʻae halanga ki he siliva, mo e potu ki he koula ʻoku fakamaʻa ʻe he kakai.

2 Thicung khaw laipi lamloh a loh tih lungto te rhohum la a tlae.

‌ʻOku toʻo ʻae ʻaione mei he kelekele, pea ʻoku haka ʻae palasa mei he maka.

3 A bawtnah te a hmuep neh a khuetnah a cungkuem hil a khueh. Anih loh lungto te a hmuep neh dueknah hlipkhup ah khaw a hoem.

‌ʻOku ne fakangata ʻae fakapoʻuli, pea ne kumi ki hono ngataʻanga: ko e ngaahi maka ʻoe poʻuli mo e ʻata ʻoe mate.

4 Soklong te aka bakuep taeng lamloh a yoe tih kho neh caeh khaw a hnilh uh. Hlanghing lamkah aka tlayae rhoek khaw hinghuen uh.

‌ʻOku ʻoho mai ʻae vai mei he potu ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae kakai; ne ngalo ia ʻi he kau vaʻe: kuo matuʻu hake ia, ʻo mole atu mei he kakai.

5 Diklai amah lamloh buh thoeng tih, a hmui ah hmai bangla om.

‌ʻOku tupu ʻae mā mei he kelekele: pea ʻoku fulihi ʻi lalo ia ʻo hangē ko e afi.

6 A lungto te minhum hmuen tih, a taengah sui laipi om.

Ko hono ngaahi maka ko e potu ia ʻoe ngaahi safaia: pea ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae efu koula.

7 A hawn te vatlung loh ming pawt tih, maisi mik loh hmu pawh.

Ko e hala eni ʻoku ʻikai ʻiloʻi ʻe he manupuna, pea kuo ʻikai mamata ki ai ʻae mata ʻoe vulita.

8 Te te sa ca rhoek loh cawt pawt tih te donglong te sathuengca long khaw pawn pawh.

Naʻe ʻikai moloki ia ʻe he fānganga ʻoe laione, pe ʻalu ʻi ai ʻae laione fekai.

9 Hmailung soah a kut a hlah tih tlang pataeng a yung ah a phil.

‌ʻOku ne ʻai hono nima ki he maka; ʻoku taʻaki fuʻu hake ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi moʻunga.

10 Sokko lungpang dongah a khoel tih umponah cungkuem khaw a mik loh a hmuh.

‌ʻOku ne matofa ʻae ngaahi tafeʻanga vai ʻi he ngaahi maka; pea ʻoku mamata ʻa hono mata ki he meʻa mahuʻinga kotoa pē.

11 Tuiva tuilong khaw a kueng tih, olhuep te khosae la a khuen.

‌ʻOku ne nonoʻo ʻae ngaahi vai ke ʻoua naʻa mafola ia; pea ko ia naʻe fufū ʻoku ne ʻomi ki he maama.

12 Tedae me rhoek ah nim cueihnah a hmuh tih, yakmingnah hmuen he menim?

“Ka ʻe ʻilo ki fē ʻae poto? Pea komaʻa ia ʻae potu ʻoe ʻilo?

13 A phu te hlanghing loh ming pawt tih, mulhing khohmuen ah a hmuh moenih.

Ko hono mahuʻinga ʻo ia ʻoku ʻikai ʻilo ʻe he tangata; pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻilo ia ʻi he fonua ʻoe moʻui.

14 Tuidung loh, “Te te kai ah moenih,” a ti tih, tuitunli loh, “Kai taengah moenih,” a ti.

‌ʻOku pehē ʻe he loloto, ‘ʻOku ʻikai ʻiate au ia:’ ʻoku pehē mo e tahi, ‘ʻOku ʻikai ʻiate au.’

15 Te ham te sui cilh khaw pae thai pawt tih, cueihnah a phu te cak khaw a khiing pah.

‌ʻE ʻikai faʻa maʻu ia ʻaki ʻae koula, pea ʻe ʻikai fakamamafa ʻae siliva mo hono totongi ʻoʻona.

16 Ophir sui nen khaw khaw, oitha lung vang nen khaw minhum nen ting pawh.

‌ʻE ʻikai fakatauʻaki ia ʻae koula ʻo Ofeli, pe ko e oniki mahuʻinga, pe ko e safaia.

17 Te te sui neh canglung neh tluk pawt tih, a hnothung he suicilh hnopai bal moenih.

‌ʻOku ʻikai tatau mo ia ʻae koula mo e kalisitala: pea ʻe ʻikai fetongi ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi teunga koula lelei.

18 Maerhuhlung neh disaehlung khaw thui lawk pawt tih, cueihnah rhovoep tah lungvang lakah then.

‌ʻE ʻikai lau ki ai ʻae feo kulokula, mo e mataʻitofe: he ko e mahuʻinga ʻoe poto ʻoku lahi hake ia ʻi he ngaahi maka mahuʻinga.

19 Te te Kusah vaya nen khaw tluk pawt tih, sui cilh nen khaw ting pawh.

‌ʻOku ʻikai tatau mo ia ʻae topasi ʻo ʻItiopea, pea ʻe ʻikai totongi ʻaki ia ʻae koula haohaoa.

20 Te dongah cueihnah he me lamkah nim ha pawk tih, yakmingnah hmuen he menim?

Ko ia, ʻoku haʻu mei fē ʻae poto? pea ko maʻā ia ʻae potu ʻoe ʻilo?

21 Mulhing boeih kah mik lamloh a thuh pah tih, vaan kah vaa taeng lamloh a thuh.

He kuo fufū ia mei he mata ʻoe moʻui kotoa pē, pea fakalilolilo mei he fanga manu ʻoe ʻatā.

22 Abaddon neh dueknah loh, “A olthang te kaimih hna neh ka yaak uh,” a ti.

‌ʻOku pehē ʻe he fakaʻauha mo e mate, ‘Kuo ma fanongo ki hono ongoongo ʻo ia ʻaki homa telinga.’

23 Pathen loh a longpuei a yakming tih, a hmuen te khaw amah loh a ming.

“ʻOku ʻiloʻi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻa hono hala, pea ʻoku ne ʻiloʻi mo hono potu.

24 Amah loh diklai khobawt hil a paelki tih, vaan hmui khaw boeih a hmuh.

He ʻoku ne sio ki he ngaahi ngataʻanga ʻo māmani, pea ʻoku ne ʻafioʻi ʻaia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi lalo langi;

25 Yilh kah a khiing a khueh pah tih tui khaw cungnueh neh a nueh.

Ke ne ngaohi ʻae mamafa ʻoe matangi; pea ʻoku ne tuʻutuʻuni ʻae ngaahi vai ʻi he fuofua.

26 Amah loh khotlan ham rhi a suem tih rhaek ol ham khaw longpuei a khueh.

‌ʻI heʻene fokotuʻu ʻae fono ki he ʻuha, pea mo e hala ki he ʻuhila ʻoe mana:

27 Cueihnah te a hmuh tih a tae. Cueihnah te a sikim sak tih a khe bal.

Ko ia naʻa ne mamata ki ai, pea fakahā ia; naʻa ne fokotuʻumaʻu ia, ʻio, pea naʻa ne hakule ki ai.

28 Hlang taengah khaw, ‘Ka Boeipa hinyahnah he cueihnah la om tih boethae lamloh nong he yakmingnah,’ a ti,” a ti nah.

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia ki he tangata, ‘Vakai, ko e manavahē kia Sihova, ko e poto ia; pea ko e afe mei he kovi ko e ʻilo ia.’”
